WANT TARIFF LAW REPEALED !
enate Adopts Resolution Asking Con
gress to Take Action
By a vote of 35 veas to 10 nays
the Senate last night adopted a resolu
tion calling upon Congress to repeal the
present Democratic tariff as the cause
of the present industrial distress. The
resolution was offered by 'Mr. Varc and
was almost through before the Demo
crats in the Senate woke up and de-
/nanile,l a ;ea and nay vote through
Senator Washers. The resolution is as
' follows:
' • Whereas, The great industrial Com
monwealth of Pennsylvania has suffer
ed more than any other State in the
Union because of the present tariff, and
" Whereas, Under its operation vour
important steel plants, our textile mills
and other industries have been operat
ing only aibout one-half capacity; and
"Whereas, The army of unemployed
in our cities and towns has brought

continued distress through inability to
obtain proper food, raiment and shel
ter; and
'"Whereas, We believe present condi
tions will become worse instead of bet
ter at the close of the war; it is there
fore
"Resolved, That the Legislature of
Pennsylvania now in session do request
the Congress of the United States to
repeal the present tariff law and re
place it with a law giving adequate pro
tection to our labor and mdust'les, and,
under normal conditions, sufficient rev
enue to warrant the repeal of the pres
ent unjust aud uncalled for special
methods of taxation now in operation."
The resolution was adopted by a
strict party vote, the Republicans vot
ing aye aud the Democrats, reinforced
by Smith, of Crawford, Bull Moose,
voting no.
A Knock-down Blow
A friend of mine, an old missionary
in China, gave a Bible to a cultivated
Chinese gentleman—a Confucianist —
asking him to read it and then to tell
•him what he thought .about it. After
a few months ho returned to the mis
sionary and said, "I have read this
book with great interest—it is a great
book, and I am inclined to try these
teachings; but," he added, "according
to this book you are not a (Christian!"
The oJd missionary, startle*! at this
sweeping assertion, re>plied, "What do
you meant-*'
The Confucianist answered, "I read
that a Christian is a man who is not
handicapped by anxiety and worry, and
is' usually a happy man. He is one who
knows th'.t his God, who cares for the
falling iyt the smallest l>ir<l? will surely
care ,for him. This'book commands him
to cast his care upon God, and it as
sures him that he will receive the gift
of peace. I read that Jesus saiid to his
disciples that he gave them his joy,
and he furthermore said, 'Let not your
heart be troubled.' 1 find that a Chris
tion is an unworried man. But vou are
5
the most worried man I know. Vou im
press me as having a thousand cares.
Vou are anxious about details concern
ing which, as these Gospels teach, you
should trust, God. You are not an "no
worried man. You arc not a Christian.
